A Note About Myself
About eleven years ago something happened that is very hard to explain. I became very confused. I was going to shut down my blog. I was overwhelmingly burdened over something. My heart felt crushed by something and
I didn’t even know what it was exactly. I went to a preacher's meeting with my husband. An old-time preacher preached, who is well known.
He preached on Jonah and the whale. I listened very intently to what he was preaching and believe it or not I felt like
God was talking directly to me. Of all things God wanted me to get back online. So here I am going on 13 years.
All because I listened to an old-time preacher and believed with all my heart God wanted me online.
Hopefully, my efforts have been a blessing to someone (for the right reasons).
There has been many times that I wanted to give up blogging. One, because it has been without reward.
Two, It has caused me a lot of grief.
Someone wants to know why my blog is big. There is a very specific reason my blog is big.
It has nothing to do with showing off. The truth is if you know anything about the story of Gideon you will know.
I’ve had many things happen to me some things are unexplainable and some things unbelievable but they are true.
Some things I just won’t talk about them because my heart tells me not to.
I have told my husband at times I think I'm going to shut my blog down.. He has encouraged me to continue. I remember when we were at the fairgrounds I didn't want to be out in front talking to people.
He told me I was good at it and I needed to be there. I felt that the men needed to do the speaking.
He persistently put me in front. Once I started talking I was perfectly fine. He said He felt I belonged there. I was able to win some people to the Lord. I obeyed my husband and God used me, even though I didn't want to be out front.
I will try as best as I can to get back to writing on Monday. I need a break from it.
